CertiPUR-US®, OEKO-TEX® & Made in USA: Decoding Mattress Quality Seals
Logos and flags on product pages promise safer, higher-quality sleep—but only if you know what they verify. This guide unpacks Spring Air’s three key trust marks—CertiPUR-US®, OEKO-TEX® Standard 100, and Made in USA—and explains how each protects your health, peace of mind, and local economy.
Certification & Origin Cheat Sheet
| Seal / Claim | Verifies | Authority | Spring Air Lines |
|---|---|---|---|
| CertiPUR-US® | Low-VOC foams, no heavy metals or PBDEs | Alliance for Flexible Polyurethane Foam | All foam layers |
| OEKO-TEX® Standard 100 | Fabric free from 100+ harmful substances | OEKO-TEX® Association | All covers |
| Made in USA | Final assembly & primary components sourced domestically | FTC “all or virtually all” guidance | All consumer mattresses |
Why These Marks Matter
- Indoor Air Quality: CertiPUR-US® limits total VOC emissions to ≤ 0.5 ppm—reducing “new mattress” odor.
- Skin Safety: OEKO-TEX® bans allergenic dyes, formaldehyde, and nickel.
- Local Benefit: Made in USA production supports American jobs and reduces ocean-freight emissions.
How to Verify Authenticity
- Enter the manufacturer’s ID on certipur.us.
- Scan the OEKO-TEX® label code at oeko-tex.com.
- Check factory city/state on law labels for U.S. assembly.
Beware Look-Alikes
- Near-names like “Certi-PURE” are not legitimate.
- Generic flag graphics without FTC wording may be stock art.
- If a site can’t supply certificate PDFs, treat claims cautiously.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do certifications expire?
Yes—CertiPUR-US® renews annually; OEKO-TEX® every one to two years.
Are chemical flame retardants used?
No. Spring Air uses fabric fire barriers—no brominated or chlorinated retardants.
Does Made in USA cover every component?
FTC allows “all or virtually all.” Small items (zippers, thread) may be imported, but cores and assembly are domestic.
